Here's an interesting little development. M1NT, the favorite alpha-numerically named club of Shanghai's glitterati, has started a new retail business. Yesterday, they launched a new online wine and spirits venture called M1NTcellars.com.
Browsing through the inventory, it looks like they're out of the gates with a fair selection. Dig deep into the some of the links to more obscure varietals, though, and you'll find yourself at many a dead end. Still, you'll find plenty of big names like Cloudy Bay, Kim Crawford and, of course, Dom. Much, if not all, of it is stuff they've already got on their menu, only, as far as I can tell, without the 3 to 400 percent mark-up restaurants and bars are wont to do.
